How Rig Drive, Mexborough prices moved
The chart tracks the median Rig Drive, Mexborough house price for every year with a recorded sale, from 2011 to 2019. The dashed line restates each year in 2026 money, so the two lines separate exactly as much as inflation has eroded the cash figure.
| Decade | Years with sales | Median paid | In today's money |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2010s | 4 | £132,500 | £186,825 |
The highest yearly median on record for Rig Drive, Mexborough is £270,000 in 2017; the lowest is £128,750 in 2011. Across the full 9-year record the cash median has moved from £128,750 to £132,500.
In 2026 money that first median is worth £197,323, so the real change over the whole record is -12.2% — about -1.61% a year after inflation. Cash growth and real growth are not the same story, and the gap is the part most price reports leave out.
Over the last decade alone the difference is stark: +2.9% in cash against -12.2% once inflation is removed. A buyer who sold at the end of that decade would have needed the real figure, not the headline one, to know whether they had actually gained.

What sells here
The mix of property types explains a large part of any area's median. Rig Drive, Mexborough is dominated by the type at the top of this table, so its overall median leans that way.

Ownership and new build in Rig Drive, Mexborough
0 of the sales on record are leasehold and 70 freehold — 0.0% of the market. Tenure is not a detail: a leasehold flat and a freehold house are different assets, and mixing them into one median hides the difference.

The Office for National Statistics puts the mean private rent in Doncaster at £690 a month as of Jun 2026 — £490 for a one-bedroom home and £752 for three bedrooms.
Against the median sale of £128,248 here, that rent is a gross yield of 6.46% a year. It is a measured figure rather than an assumption: a real local rent over a real local price, before any cost of ownership.
Police forces publish every recorded street-level crime. Within a mile of the centre of S64, 224 crimes were recorded in Jun 2026: 86 violent, 8 burglary, 6 vehicle-related and 24 anti-social behaviour. The median postcode district in this archive recorded 167 in the same month, so this one is 1.3 times busier.
Against the 308,106 residents the 2021 census counted in Doncaster, that is 0.73 recorded crimes per thousand people in the month. The count covers a mile around the district centre while the population covers the whole council, so read the rate as an order of magnitude rather than a precise figure.
A count is not a rate. A district with shops and a station records more crime than a residential one of the same size, because more people pass through it. Read this next to the median, not on its own.
Section 08
The neighbourhood around Rig Drive, Mexborough
The 2021 census counted 308,106 residents in Doncaster across 133,480 households. 63.3% of those households own their home and 36.4% rent — a split the sold record cannot show, because only owners appear in it.
12 state and independent schools have a S64 postcode: 10 primary, 2 secondary. Catchment areas do not follow postcodes, so treat this as what is nearby rather than what a child would be offered.

Within Mexborough the street ranks 83 of 347 by median price, and its median is above the town figure of £87,500 (+46.6%).

Rig Drive, Mexborough sits in Doncaster, in the Yorkshire and The Humber.
The Office for National Statistics puts the median home in Doncaster at 5.2 times median local earnings of £33,802 a year, measured to Sep 2025. Across England and Wales the same ratio is 7.6. That number, not the price alone, is what decides whether a place is within reach of the people who work in it.

Quick answers
Common questions about this data
What is the average house price in Rig Drive, Mexborough?
The median price paid in Rig Drive, Mexborough across every sale on the register is £128,248. The median is used rather than the mean because a handful of very large sales would otherwise drag the average away from what a typical buyer paid.
How many homes have sold in Rig Drive, Mexborough?
70 sales are on record for Rig Drive, Mexborough, the most recent completing on 22 May 2026. Every one is a completed transfer lodged with HM Land Registry, not an asking price or an estimate.
Have Rig Drive, Mexborough house prices actually risen?
In cash, the median rose +2.9% between 2011 and 2019. In 2026 money — that is, after inflation — the change is -12.2%. Both numbers are true; only the second one tells you whether buying here preserved value.
When were Rig Drive, Mexborough house prices at their highest?
The highest yearly median on record is £270,000, set in 2017. That is the cash figure; measured in 2026 money the peak may fall in a different year, because inflation reshapes the series.
What is the price per square metre in Rig Drive, Mexborough?
No EPC floor areas could be matched to these sales, so no price per square metre is published for this area. Nothing is estimated to fill the gap.
How current is this data?
The latest sale shown here completed on 22 May 2026. HM Land Registry publishes Price Paid Data monthly and a sale can take a month or two to appear after completion, so the most recent weeks are always incomplete.
